I just had a baby and it's like i have to make a bowl movement but its so painful that i can't use da bathroom what is causing that?

Episiotomy repair.: You state that you just had a baby but you don't state how long ago that was! If you had a episiotomy (surgical cutting of your perineum) it may not have fully healed and you should be on stool softeners so that you don't push hard to pass stool. Speak to your OB.
